Hello,

A VB-coded Database Client is using what I believe is a Grid control. The only info I have about the control is AU3_Spy lists its ClassNN as TG80.C1Grid32.202, so I can only assume its a Grid Control.

In a general way, what method can I use to read all the data contained in this control? It contains editable text fields which could be used to automate a certain process, leaving less up to the user.

I would be programming this automation in either VBA (Excel) or using C#, but I don't require language-specific instructions. Just an approach to solving the problem.

Thank you,

Jon

I am not sure about this but I would look at the System.Reflection namespace in the first instance. That is a way to find out what information is contained in classes, and a controls are just a classes.
